Final Instructions: Intercessory Prayer (Colossians 4:3-4)
Jul 10, 2022
Jeff McLain

On July 10, Jeff McLain looked at how Paul calls us the church to commit to intercessory prayer, in Colossians 4:3-4, as he continued our Sunday morning series, Final Instructions. Throughout this series, each week, we have explored Paul’s final instructions to the church in Colossae.

In a season of cultural earthquakes, Paul encourages the Colossian church towards maturity in Christ by learning to pray for the message and the messengers of the Kingdom. In the same way, Paul’s writing encourages us to pray that the rule and reign of God to break-in to the realities of our world. We are encouraged to pray that the obstacles of the messengers do not become a hinderance to the testimony of who Jesus is and what knowing Jesus brings. We must be a church that is dedicated to praying for the mission and messengers of God.

It is in Colossians 4:3-4, that Paul writes; "And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should.”
